Fernie is a gold dragon. Always visible to all as one — her presence is what draws stares in any city. “Fernie” is the nickname; her full name is Infernoxus.
She has been with Elijah since he stole her egg from his own clan. Her egg was meant to be sacrificed to gain power; Elijah refused — power is not worth Fernie — broke sacred oaths, and ran. The dragonborn are still after the egg/relic and believe it is alive (correct).
Has saved the party more than once. Has a mechanical leg.
In the campaign
- Lost a leg in the wolf/ghoul ambush in Session 06. Garric Smith crafted her a mechanical replacement with reinforced talons in Session 12.
- Frequently sent on reconnaissance, often catching things the rest of the party miss.
- Killed by Lady Serenna’s wail in Session 18 (revived after).
- Carried Elijah J. Lucas safely down from a second-floor window in Session 17 using Thrash to glide.
- Used Thrash on the Sea Hag in Session 27 for advantage on attacks.
- Ruasar insisted her name appear on the Greyhaven forgery in Session 30 — listed as Infernoxus Lucas, formalizing her as part of Elijah’s family on the doc.
- In Session 31 her true nature was revealed to the rest of the party in the wake of the dragonborn pursuers arriving in Greyhaven. Adrik agreed: she is worth protecting at any cost.
- Snapped at Cisco in Session 32 when the party tried to disguise her for the Warehouse 17 heist.
- Rolled Nat 1 scouting the warehouse roof — snagged into the roof with a loud bang. Recovered to open windows for the rest of the climb-in.
- Visited The Boutique in Session 33 with Elijah and Cisco. The Boutique Mistress was briefly shocked by her, then designed a warhorse / war-dog-style outfit. Elijah unconvinced.
She doesn’t want to die.
